Tenant Harassment

It is illegal for building owners to force tenants to
leave their apartments or surrender their rights. If you are a
tenant in an apartment in the City who is being harassed by
your landlord, you can get information and help. You may be
eligible for free or low-cost legal assistance.

Harassment of tenants by landlords or owners can
include:

Not offering leases or lease renewals, or repeatedly
trying to pay you to move out.

Unjustified eviction notices or illegal lockouts.

Threats and intimidation, such as late-night phone
calls.

Overcharging for a rent-regulated apartment.

Failure to provide necessary repairs or utilities.

Deliberately causing construction-related problems
for tenants, such as working after hours, blocking entrances,
or failing to remove excessive dust or debris.
